RCBS Matchmaster Neck Bushing 2 Die Set 6.5mm PRC

• Interchangeable neck bushing system: lets the reloader tune neck tension for a specific bullet and brass combination, helping produce more consistent release and better cartridge-to-cartridge uniformity.
• Micrometer seating adjustment: makes seating-depth changes precise and repeatable, which is especially useful when refining loads for long-range or match ammunition.
• Neck-size configuration: sizes only the case neck rather than the full body, reducing working of the brass and supporting longer case life in rifles using fire-formed cases.
• Titanium carbide sizing surface: helps the sizing operation run more smoothly and stands up well to repeated use, which is valuable during high-volume load development.
• Standard 7/8"-14 thread: fits common reloading presses, making it easy to integrate this die set into an established bench setup without special adapters.

About the MatchMaster Series

RCBS MatchMaster dies sit at the precision-focused end of the company’s rifle reloading lineup. The series is built for reloaders who want tighter control over the variables that influence concentricity, neck tension and seating depth, particularly for long-range and match ammunition. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, MatchMaster dies are designed around adjustability, with neck-bushing options that let the user tailor case-neck grip to a chosen bullet and brass combination.

Within the range, RCBS offers full-length bushing sets, neck-size bushing sets and stand-alone seating dies, so the reloader can choose a workflow that matches the rifle and application. The dies are made from case-hardened steel with precision-machined and hand-polished internal surfaces, reflecting a design philosophy centered on repeatable alignment and smooth operation. In practical terms, the MatchMaster series is aimed at shooters who tune loads carefully, track seating-depth changes in small increments and want a die system that supports disciplined, repeatable ammunition assembly rather than simple bulk production.

About the RCBS Matchmaster Neck Bushing 2 Die Set 6.5mm PRC

The RCBS Matchmaster Neck Bushing 2 Die Set 6.5mm PRC is built for reloaders who want fine control over ammunition for the 6.5 PRC, especially when working with brass that has already been fired in the same rifle. Its neck-sizing format concentrates on the portion of the case that grips the bullet, which is useful when the goal is to preserve case fit to the chamber while reducing unnecessary working of the brass. For precision-oriented bolt-action loads, that approach can support more consistent case life and a more controlled reloading process.

The defining feature is the competition bushing neck die, which uses interchangeable bushings to set neck tension with more precision than a fixed-dimension die. That matters when changing bullet designs, brass lots or desired hold on the projectile, because neck tension has a direct effect on start pressure and consistency. The included seating die adds a micrometer adjustment, allowing repeatable seating-depth changes without guesswork. This is particularly useful when testing jump to the lands or maintaining a proven load recipe over time.

RCBS also uses titanium carbide in the sizing die and a steel die body for durability and smooth operation. Combined with standard 7/8"-14 thread compatibility, the set fits easily into most conventional press setups while offering the kind of control expected from dedicated precision reloading tools.

About RCBS

RCBS was founded in 1943 by Fred T. Huntington in Oroville, California. The company name came from “Rock Chuck Bullet Swage,” the original bullet-swaging die that started the business. From that beginning, RCBS developed into a specialist in ammunition handloading and reloading equipment for both rifle and pistol cartridges.

RCBS is still associated closely with Oroville, where it manufactures reloading tools and supports a product range that includes presses, dies, shell holders, powder measures and priming tools. Its lineup spans single-stage, turret and progressive presses, which reflects the brand’s long-standing focus on practical tools for everyone from occasional reloaders to precision-minded shooters. That background makes RCBS particularly relevant in the die category, where repeatability, durability and compatibility across established bench equipment matter more than novelty.
